Page 16, PHOENIX, June 20, 1974 Beard Asks City Funds toAid Free Legal ServicesSam Beard, candidate for the Democratic nomination for Congress in the 14th Congressional District, has backed attorneys and clerical staff members of the Community Action for Legal Services (CALS) in their demand for New York City funding to supplement the federal allocation to the free legal services agency.Beard specifically endorsed the CALS staff call for the city to add $1 million yearly to the agency%u2019s $5 million annual allotment from W ashington. The candidate%u2019s endorsement came after a conference at the South Brooklyn CALS center on Court and Pacific where he discussed the plight of the 11branch city agency with Attorneys Chip Gray and Richard Panebianco, Directors of the South Brooklyn and Williamsburgh CALS centers respectively.The federal government has not upped the $5 million dollar annual CALS budget since 1971-72, thus making the agency a victim of inflation with resulting staff dropouts and curtailments of services, the directors said. The city, which typically provides a 20 percent addition to the budget of most federally funded programs for the poor, has never supplied such money to CALS.%u201c It is amazing,%u201d Beard said, %u201c that so many workers do remain inCALS when the constant federal budget has not allowed staff increases since the fall of 1972 and has thus kept the starting salary for CALS attorneys at $ll,500-the lowest on the legal ladder. %u2019%u2019 %u2018 %u2018however,%u201d Beard said, %u201cwithout an immediate move from the city to provide adequate funding, the program will be truly jeopardized. The caseload of the South Brooklyn center which covers one third of the borough has already dwindled from a monthly average of 325 clients to 200 clients per months since three of the center%u2019s 13 attorneys resigned last year,%u201d Beard point out, and added that the total yearly CALS cleintele in Brooklyn has dropped from 11,000 to 7,000.Bellamy Formally AnnouncesCandidacy for Re-electionState Senator Carol Bellamy, on June 17, formally announced her candidacy for re-election with the following statement:%u201c 1 will seek the Democratic nomination for the 25th New York State Senate District. 1 am here to renew the trust placed in me (2 years ago) by my constituency, to represent them in the State Senate. I will not and cannot abandon them to the whims of Republican gerrymanders; nor will I myself bow before the pressure of an arrogant Republican party acting with a frightened Democratic leadership to silence me and others who speak out, who protest their barren policy and legislation.%u201c 1 will run as an incumbent in this district, standing on my record of legislative performance and ofcommunity service. 1 have been a full time Senator, present for the sessions and speaking out on the issues before us. I feel my record of participation in the Senate and of independence in decision making can be in no way matched by my opponent.%u201c Similarly, 1 have fought and worked to bring services to my constituents, while my opponent has sat idle. 1 placed 3 offices, in widely varying sections of my district, at the disposal of the communities 1 represent, to provide direct services such as distribution and aid in filling out of senior citizen forms by my staff. But in addition to direct services. 1 have tried to aid local residents in problems they have incurred with governmental agencies, such as the Police, Immid a y PROMPT SERVICEC. M.

It needs representation which is concerned with, responsive to, and supported by many types of communities, as I have been.Councilman Fred Richmond and Countilwoman Mary Pinker!confer on endorsement of a city-wide hypertension program.Richmond Proposes CareFor Hypertension Victims%u2018%u2018More than 1 million New Yorkers suffering from hypertension should be able to receive free treatment at New York%u2019s District Health Centers.%u201d predicts HeightsFort Greene Councilman Fred Richmond as he called on the Beame Administration to establish a City-wide hypertension detection and treatment program last week.Joining Richmond at a City Hall news conference to endorse aPesce to Work Hard inCampaign for Re-electionAssemblyman Michael L.

Nevertheless, 1 will campaign long and hard, and I am confident that I will win re-election to a second term in the State Assembly.

Richmond, a member of the City Council Finance Committee, proposed the inclusion of a $1,181,730 Health Department Hypertension Program in the 1974-75 Expense Budget.For the past two months, the Health Department has been coordinating a pilot program to identify and treat high blood pressure victims in Fort Greene. Almost 4,000 people have been screened for high blood pressure with 100 patients now under treatment at the Fort Greene Health Center and Kings County Hospital. The councilmembers want this Hypertension Detection and Treatment Program initiated in other areas of the City.Councilman Richmond said; %u201c Hypertension is the major health problem afflicting the residents of New York%u2019s low income communities. Health experts estimate that as many as 800,000 people in this City who have high blood pressure are not receiving any treatment. We must launch a head-on attack on the hypertension problem, establishing a City-wide screening and treatment program. The estimated cost of this vital project is only 1.2 million dollars. While we realize that the City is in the midst of a budget crisis, the health program, which will reach a large segment of our low income population, must be given top priority.%u201dl)A> (>H NIGHT ijODR TO IK><>H SERVICE fH eights Car & Limousine Service Inc./.ora/ and l.onn Distance ('.allsZone Flat RatesOPEN 24 HOI HS 'PEL. 522-7222SENSITIVE am nuHiDELMumPORTRAYAL OF CHILDREN THROUGHPHOTOGRAPHY643*9654 j------------SHIP AND SNIP !GALLERY 91YARDSTICKScotto Funeral Koine106 First Place Brooklyn, N.Y.Salvatore Buddy Scotto, President 1R 5-2515\\sem i-annual Sale ;J u o e (7- 29,M o fl-5a t ' 2 aieeK5 i OFF REGULAR RETAIL PRICE: ICREWEL KlT$ . . .\\0~SO lo IHeeoLEPoiHTHrrs...io-5-o*7t> I N%u00a3EOL%u00a3ft>iNr CANVASES...10-2?%!
